Why we love Citrus Bioflavonoids!

citrus bioflavonoids in fruits

Bioflavonoids, also known as flavonoids, are a group of plant-derived compounds that can be found in certain fruits and vegetables and other popular foods such as dark chocolate and red wine. 

Citrus bioflavonoids, derived from citrus fruits, contain flavonoids in high concentrations and are powerful antioxidants that work in symbiosis with vitamins to neutralize free radicals in the body. 

These potent antioxidants may also help your body fight off allergies and viruses. But bioflavonoids are much more than just toxin-busting antioxidants; they have been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombogenic, anti-diabetic, anti-cancer and neuroprotective properties.

Let’s take a look in more detail exactly how beneficial citrus bioflavonoids are and why we love them so much!

Top benefits of citrus bioflavonoids

Although research into bioflavonoids is still in the early stages, scientists are discovering more and more amazing benefits that these natural compounds have to offer:

Potent antioxidant 

There are tons of studies to prove the antioxidant benefits of bioflavonoids. In one overview, researchers explain that flavonoids interfere with the enzymes that create free radicals, deactivate ‘bad’ molecules before they cause damage to cells, and increase your body’s antioxidant defenses. 

Free radicals are agents of destruction! They break down your cells from the inside out. This can cause premature aging and inflammation-related conditions. With bioflavonoids hindering the production of free radicals and clearing them out the body, your body is able to repair and heal itself, and slow down the aging process!

Allergy fighting 

The antioxidant effects of bioflavonoids have shown to be effective against allergic conditions such as atopic dermatitis, asthma, and rhinitis. 

Free radicals cause oxidative stress, which is where toxins in the body begin to destroy healthy cells and tissues. Allergic reactions are often associated with excess oxidative stress on the body. As we mentioned, the antioxidants in bioflavonoids destroy free radicals in the body, which, as a result, reduce oxidative stress. This helps to reduce pain and inflammation in the body, as well as leading to fewer allergic reactions.

In one review, research shows that various flavonoids reduce inflammatory responses that contribute to the development of asthma. This research also concludes that the anti-allergic, immune-modulating, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of flavonoids may be effective dietary nutrients for the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases.

Cardiovascular Benefits

Coronary artery disease is another health concern linked to oxidative stress and inflammation. According to a manuscript written for the National Institute of Health, bioflavonoids “reduce mortality” caused by cardiovascular diseases. This means that the antioxidants present in bioflavonoids may protect your heart, veins, arteries and lower your risk of coronary heart disease death. 

Further research also shows that bioflavonoids may reduce your risk of stroke by improving the blood flow to your brain. This, in turn, reduces the risk of a blocked artery which, if this happens, would deprive your brain of oxygen.

NATURAL BRAIN Booster

Oxidative stress also plays a key role in the development of certain neurological conditions, such as Alzheimer’s, dementia, and Parkinson’s disease. As we know, bioflavonoids help massively to reduce oxidative stress throughout the body. This means that the symptoms of these neurological problems are significantly reduced.

One article written for the European Journal of Epidemiology indicates that bioflavonoids can reduce the risk of dementia. Other studies also point out that reducing the impact of oxidative stress on the body protects the nervous system from damage and that by increasing the number of antioxidants present in the body, you can help the brain repair itself. 

For optimal heart health, brain health and a complete body clear out we recommend adding bioflavonoids to your daily diet.
